Informed Sport

Every batch tested for banned substances before release

Summary

Informed Sport says it tests every batch of a certified product for prohibited substances before release, then keeps blind-testing after certification. [1]

What it tests

Each batch is tested individually (no composite testing) before commercial release. [1]

Products are blind-purchased from retailers and tested; manufacturing processes and raw materials are reviewed with a focus on prohibited substances. [1]

Testing is done by LGC's ISO/IEC 17025-accredited lab. [1]

What it doesn't cover

Informed Sport does not allow cannabinoid (CBD) products into the program. [1]

Seals don't guarantee safety or effectiveness. [2]

How to verify a product

Look up on their site

Informed Sport recommends searching your product's batch number on its website; you can also search by brand, product name and formulation. [1]
